Amber played the show’s leading character Joan Girardi.Joan was a high-school student who talked to

her at first such as getting a job or trying out for an extracurricular activity
at Arcadia High School.Joan has no idea
about how God’s assignments will affect her, her family and h…

stage, And all the men and
women merely players, They have their exits

nobleman Jaques briefly discuss each of the Seven Ages of Man.In this order, they are: Infant, Schoolboy,
Lover, Soldier, Justice, Pantalone and Old Age. Now we will fast-forward
to almost 350 years into the future.Within that time, technology has advanced by leaps and bounds.One does not need to go to the theater just
to see a stage production—whether it is either comedy or tragedy.Film, for over the past century, has given us

1940’s.Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy
were my favorite comedians.Buster
